Coach has released the latest version of its ‘Love’ perfume range, called Coach Love. It is a fruity and floral scent, in a bright red bottle.
The previous iterations of ‘Love’ were 2014’s Love Eau Blush, a floral perfume with a woody base, which was a lighter version of 2012’s Love, a floral perfume with the slight sweetness of caramel and vanilla base notes.
Coach Love features top notes of Wild Strawberry, heart notes of Red Rose and base notes of Cedarwood. It was developed by Antoine Maisondieu.
Unfortunately I haven’t found it for sale in Europe just yet, but a similar option would be Kate Spade New York Woman (top note: Strawberry; heart note: Rose; base note: Ambroxan).
For something with similar notes, have a look at Bouquet De Hongrie by BDK Parfums (top notes: Blackcurrant, Pear, Strawberry; heart notes: Amber, Jasmine, Rose; base notes: Amber, Cedarwood, Musk).
Love by Coach was the original perfume in the ‘Love’ series by the brand, and was developed by Firmenich. Its top notes are Violet, Blackberry, Freesia, and Mandarin; heart notes are Jasmine, Gardenia, and Magnolia; base notes are Patchouli, Musk, Sandalwood, Caramel, and Vanilla. It is a floral perfume with a hint of sweetness from the base notes.
It is now discontinued, but I found two perfumes with similar notes. Jump Up and Kiss Me Ecstatic by Clive Christian has top notes of Mandarin, Orange, and Pink Pepper; heart notes of Jasmine, Orange Blossom, Rose, Tuberose, and Ylang Ylang; and base notes of Amber, Leather, Musk, Sandalwood, Tonka Bean, Vanilla, Vetiver, and Woody Notes).
Eterniris by Hermetica has top notes of Bergamot, Mandarin, Pepper, Pineapple, Rose, Saffron, and Violet Leaf; heart notes of Cedarwood, Clove, Geranium, Jasmine, Lily-of-theValley, Nutmeg, Orris, and Raspberry; and base notes of Amber, Musk, Patchouli, Tonka Bean, Vanilla, Vetiver, Myrrh, and Oud.
Love Eau Blush was released in 2014 as a lighter version of Love. Its top notes are Freesia, Blackcurrant and Bergamot; heart notes are Lily-of-the-Valley, Jasmine, Gardenia, and Magnolia; base notes are Musk, Sandalwood, Cedar, and Amber.
Same as Love, it is unfortunately discontinued – but I found two perfumes with similar notes. Playing with the Devil by Kilian has top notes of Blackcurrant, Litchi, Orange, and Peach; heart notes of Jasmine, Pepper, Pimento and Rose; and base notes of Amber, Cedarwood, Patchouli, Sandalwood, Tonka Bean, and Vanilla.
